Lights Fading
Quietly sauntering
through faded lights
on an alley,
past transgressions mirror
to beg for unresolved penance.

Stinging the soul with regret
Sharp penance of years
A yearning too deep for tears
A token of repentance
Times short pleasure to take
Youthful mirth vanishes away...

My Turn To Burn
It is my turn to face the flame
The darkest fire
Her wrath of penance
The woe from my pestilence
An evil army of deadly words
Damnation to finally pay
it leaves a sour taste in the mouth
I am now ended...

How many pairs of shoes it took
To look before crossing
Dangerous Paths...

Accept my penance.

An Angel Fell Down From Hell
An angel
Fell down
From hell
Today
His body unburned
With so much to say
He said the war was too much
And he wanted to try his luck
As a human and ask
For repentance
Get closer
To heaven
To pay his penance
The honorable way...

Back Taxes
Hangovers are a back-tax on fun.
